Ayurveda Treatment for Migraine

A migraine headache is a form of vascular headache. Migraine headache is caused by vasodilatation (enlargement of blood vessels) which causes the release of chemicals from nerve fibres that coil around the large arteries of the brain. It is a debilitating condition characterized by moderate to severe headaches, and nausea. In Ayurveda, migraine is correlated with Ardhavabhedhaka, with tri dosha vitiation and involvement of half part of the head and different types of pain – pricking, cutting, stabbing, tearing, and burning. Suppression of natural urges, indulging in excessive exercise, excessive intake of dry & rough food, fasting, and exposure to fog or cold, are said to be the triggers of ardhavabhedaka. This causes vata or Vata Kapha dosha vitiation, affects the Shiras, and produces shirashoola or headache on ardhabhaga or half side of the head. Ayurveda treatment for migraine focuses on balancing the doshas and addressing the underlying causes to provide relief.
